Straight To Her Head
The ball flew straight ahead
Smacking her right in the head
I pitched it to her
It came so fast, it happened in a blur
She sniffled in pain
As I thought in my brain,
I could have said, "Head's up!" or "Watch out!"
But I watched as the coach said, "Timeout!"
My face turns red, I feel ashamed
I knew I didn't aim
I forget to say sorry
I think she thought I was angry
I see it in my dreams
And sometimes in daydreams
I and I will never forget
How we both were so upset
